About this Event
Join us for hands-on fun with STEM. Tickets are free!
Science Saturdays are back with the start of the new school year! It’s time to sign up for IHMC's September event. New this year, on a trial basis for the fall season, Science Saturdays are open to 7th graders. This is in response to popular demand!
This free, hands-on robotics experience takes place at IHMC, 40 S. Alcaniz St. in Pensacola. Students in grades 5, 6, and 7 are invited to join us to program tiny ozobot robots. While no prior programming experience is required, prior experience is ok as students will work at their own pace. This event will be led by Mr. Heath Parr, a STEM teacher at Brown Barge Middle School. We hope you’ll be able to join us as we have fun doing hands-on robot activities while we learn about computer programming using the Scratch programming language.
The season sponsors, Florida Power and Light, the Florida Blue Foundation, Cox, the Altera Group, and the Escambia County Sheriff's Office, make it possible for interested students to enjoy science and STEM for free at IHMC.
Attendance at each session is limited to registered ticket holders. If there are no tickets left, please click JOIN WAITLIST. It’s definitely worthwhile to join the list, as we usually get cancellations before each Science Saturday. If you don’t get a ticket after joining the list, please request priority registration for next time. Questions? Please call the IHMC front desk at 850-202-4462.
Science is super fun! We hope your 5th and 6th grade students will join us at 11am. (Please register students in grades grades 3 and 4 for 9 am. Both sessions will be age appropriate, so it's important to register for the correct time.)
Best wishes,
